Abstract

The invention relates to photochromic compounds of general formula: ##STR1## wherein R.sup.a, R.sup.b and R.sup.c is denote hydrogen; alkyl; aryl; OR, SR, COR or COOR, in which R denotes hydrogen, alkyl or aryl, amino of formula NR.sub.1 R.sub.2 in which R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 denote hydrogen, alkyl, cycloalkyl or an aryl; a halogen atom; a mono- or polyhaloalkyl group; or an NO.sub.2, CN or SCN group; n and m denote integers from 1 to 5; p is equal to 1 or 2; and H is a 5-members aromatic heterocycle containing one or more heteroatoms selected from nitrogen, oxygen and sulfur, these heterocyclic nuclei being eventually substituted by one or more alkyl, alkoxy, amino, aryl or aralkyl groups or condensed with a phenyl nucleus, a substituted phenyl nucleus or a 6-members cycloaliphatic nucleus and to their use in ophtalmic optics.
